Cordless

Atuhor's nose:

A sburb based adventure (oh my god why), except I hope to break away from some of the ordinary homestuck concepts and mechanics... somewhat. First forum adventure for me, so suggestions both for the story and for my techniques/presentation and such are welcome nevermind I take crit badly ;-;. Anyway, here goes...

O, also fanarts.

TheBoyd; THREE DAYS

SleepyOrange;... dunno if His Scene Her Style counts but I'm including it

Re: Cordless

The name is accepted. A resident of the world, examined.

It is night time. And you can't sleep. You often have difficulty sleeping, and sit in your room for hours on end in awful awareness of how tired you are. Whoever you are. It's hard to think in the dark, perhaps you should shed a little light on proceedings first.

Re: Cordless

Your name is Lance Nervui.

You are depressed, in part due to your ongoing insomnia issues, but also because today is your last day being classed as a youth of Terron. Tomorrow, you begin the rigorous training all Terronians go through in order to become qualified in their assigned field. Since you are what is known as a four-cord, you will invariably become trained in some kind of heavy duty labour: mining, construction, etc. You are definitely not looking forward to it.

Today, you are going to try and make the most of that last day as a youth, at least. Some friends have informed you of a game that you should certainly play. You like games. You have always been sort of a shut-in, but that's mainly because you hate what lies outside your Caesuroom. In any case, dawn is approaching, so there is really no use in trying to sleep again.

Re: Cordless

>Examine room

By and large, your room is empty. You are so shut in, it never occurred to you that it could do with some furnishing. Most of your needs have been covered by what you already own. Food rations are delivered through the ceiling via pneumatic tube, which has often caught you by surprise. Nothing ruins a good morning laze-about more than mashed Electrosite to the face. You prefer Pyrosites anyway, they taste better.

The device on the far left is used for preparing the drink that helps you sleep, though it tastes so vile you often opt to deal with the insomnia over consuming that mud water. Terron beds are nothing more than a large squidgy cushion. The tank of water houses Gerard, your pet Electrosite and frankly, your closest pal. The socket on the wall can connect you to the Virtual Terron Web. The view over the balcony is nice, or would be if the civilisation outside didn't send shivers of disgust down your iron spine.

Re: Cordless

Absolutely not! Electrosites may be one of many -sites that make up the majority of Terronian diet, but almost every youth of Terron owns a young -site of their choosing as a domesticated pet.

Gerard is far too small to make a good snack anyway.

He has often seen you eating members of his species. But that's okay; he understands. Or at least, you like to think he does.

>Lance: Connect to the web, see if anyone is awake

You connect yourself to the VTW. You enter your virtual room, which is just as bland as your regular room. Nobody seems to be active on your CHUMPANEL, but it appears you have new messages in your inbox.
